We are major supporters of wildlife rehabbers and truly appreciate the efforts and obvious care that this organization offers the wildlife that reside there. They promote environmental awareness and how humans impact nature. We observed a school field trip during our visit that was managed extremely well and unintrusive to the other guests. Well worth the time to visit or to take children to get up close and personal with the wolves, grizzlies and other critters!

A 'must do' when staying in West Yellowstone. This incredible Discovery Centre was a highlight of our trip. We visited early (just after opening) and were lucky to see really active wolves at the Wolf Pack Talk in the Naturalist Cabin. My kids participated in the Keeper Kids Program and were granted entry to the Grizzly Enclosure to hide food and treats between bear change overs - an excellent bear enrichment activity. We loved the birds of prey and otter enclosures, those cheeky otters are adorable. The Bear Resistant Testing display was eye opening and the bear spray demonstration was helpful and easy to follow.

My son and grandson thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Grizzly and Bear Discovery Center in West Yellowstone. We spent several hours there. I would recommend at least 4 hours to have the opportunity to see the enrichment programs for each of the animals. This is not a zoo. This is a refuge for Yellowstone creatures who cannot be released back to the wild. Don't miss it.

This is a Must Do when in West Yellowstone. We went with 3 couples in January and No One was disappointed. It was Way Better than I originally thought it would be. The Bears, Wolves and Otters were all out. It was a Great way to spend an afternoon. Would love to return with our grandkids.

To me, this is definitely worth the time and money. Watching the different bears come out and getting such a great view of them was fabulous. Getting to see the wolves so close up and during feeding time was also a favorite. I really enjoyed this place. It is small but memorable.

Incredible place for a short visit in the winter. You won’t see wolves this close up. And you shouldn’t try to approach a grizzly this close. The wolves are magnificent in the snow and the grizzlies were so playful. Definitely worth a stop over. Especially in the winter.

Beautiful, small discovery zoo with grizzlies, wolves, hawks, eagles, and owls. Also otters. The main attraction for us was the wolves because the program ranger did an immersive experience where he explained how they stimulate the wolves by allowing them to go into each other’s dens, and they put fish in the ponds and let them seek out each other’s scents. The program lasted about a half hour, and was included with the admission. So make sure to check the time on that and don’t miss it. We got excellent pictures of the wolves, and got to see their behaviors of close. Very interesting!

What a great place. We visited on a cool day in May but really enjoyed ourselves. We saw lots of wolves, several bears and a great aquatic display. I hope to return sometime.

This was a very nice sanctuary for animals that can’t survive in the wild. We saw the wolves and they howled back and forth; the otters were adorable. The best part was my 6 yr old granddaughter did the Keeper Kids program. The kids participating went into the bears outside space and hid food then got to watch the bears come out and find the food. She was so excited!

I was pleasantly surprised. I expected a small zoo, but the enclosures were very well done. The facility has staff demonstrations or talks scheduled much of the day. We learned about bear spray dos and don'ts. They rotate bears in the enclosure, hiding food before each one or pair enters. This makes the animals search and paw through rocks, etc. in a more natural way. The wolves were resting when we visited. They also have birds of prey. The river otter house was also very interesting because you could watch them above and under the water. I felt we got good value for our admission
